He was a dairy farmer and was also employed at Appleton Mills for 12 years until his retirement in 1977. His retirement was spent with Dorothy, his wife of over 68 years, doing the things they enjoyed, camping, fishing and playing cards. He was a member of St. Denis Catholic Church. Dad saw many changes in the world during his lifetime, from horse drawn vehicles to space travel, kerosene lamps to electricity, radio to TV, computers, iPods. Dad was a great historian recounting many past memories and passing them on to his family.
